June 27 Unless Yamhill county WPA projects are halted, farmers will shortly face a serious labor shortage, Guy Lang, state un employment service office man ager here, said yesterday. Lang asserted that all workers on one project had rejected assignment slips for farm work. Unless the projects were shut down, he said, WPA workers would not take farm employ ment even though most farmers were offering more pay than that given by WPA. Continued operation was characterized by him as evidence of WPA failure to co-operate with farmers. Compromise Favored Portland, Ore., June 27. VT) Interstate Commerce Commis sion Examiner H. C.

Henry settled back and looked at his wife. "What were you smiling about lust a moment ago?" he asked. "I was smiling about us," Lu illa replied. "Us? . . . What's so amusing ibout us?" "I feel smug also, Henry . . . Want to know why!" "Sure." "Because I've got you and not 1 career." "I didn't think you ever con lidered a career, my angel." "I didn't . . . But, welL I was thinking of Marie when I men tioned a career. She apparently preferred it to marriage. Henry nodded thoughtfully. "That reminds me," he said. "What of?" "We'll have to look Marie up when we get to New York." "Why?" "Why? , . . Gosh, honey, she's in old friend of ours. Don't you remember how we were always together the three of us and how" "And how people made bets ibout which one of us you'd mar ryMarie or me," Luella inter rupted. "Yes, I remember." "Well, they won't do any more betting, said Henry. He searched Luella's face. -"Don t you want to look up Marie." "Of coursel" said Luella. "But she's probably started going round with a crowd of Deools we'd never At in with. She's prob lbly out-grown us long since. Mavbe she won't even want a souple of small-towners like us looking her up." "Nonsense! said Henry. "Ma rie's always been a loyal little oul." He paused and frowned, "Another thing, Luelia you and I aren't going to act like small- towners, even if we are. We're (oina daces. In no time at all. we'll be entertaining having us I grand time. Marie'lT probably be tickled pmK to come to our par ties and things." "But it'll take quite a while, won't it," Luella asked, "to start all that entertaining and every thing?" Eagle Point, June 27.

Then Henry said, "I've got an ideal" "What is it?" Luella wanted to know. "I think we ought to have Marie up right away for one of your fried chicken dinners. I mean, not wait until we're in a position to entertain on a large scale. "You mean start displaying Southern hospitality a soon aa we reach New York?" "Exactly!... Ill bet dollars to beaten biscuits Marie hasn't had a piece of properly fried chicken since she got to be famous." "Well, she's had about every thing else," aaid Luella, hoping she didn't sound too hard, "so I reckon she can forego the chicken even chicken that a fried South em atyle." Somehow it didn't seem quite decent for a husband to oe discussing enotner woman while on his honeymoon. "Be sides," she added, "fried chicken is fattening, and Marie always has had a perfect horror of taking on flesh." The waiter came In then. "Here come our steaks!" Henry anounced. He reached across the table, and took one of Luella's hands. "Do you know one of the main reasons I asked you to mar ry me, my love? 'No. my love, aaid Luella. "Why?" "You won't get mad? "Why should 1?" "I don't know, only, you see "For heaven's sake stop keep ing me -n this terrible suspense!" "Very well, her goes! I asked you to marry me partly because of the fact that you're a girl who likes her steak rare, and that in itself is a rarity." Henry waited, grinning. "All right, go on throw something at me. "I can't be bothered." said Lu ella. "All my attention goes to the steak and not to you." They ate with relish, glancing up now and then to watch the scenery that appeared to be roll ing past the window glancing up to watch it and remark about the hills and the valleys and the lights in houses, cabins, and fac tories. A short time later they were on their way back to their draw ing room. They walked through "Briarwood," through "Blue Ridge," through "Mandalay," and then on into "Skvland."

"Clouds along the Swannt.ioa, Mah man done gone away, Leavin' me, grievin' me. Cause he's gone to stay. . . ." The audience which had come to watch the broadcast sat spell bound, leaning slightly forward, eager to catch every word, to see every gesture. Ana in the con trol room several men also lis tened intently, looking out through the thick glass partition at the dark-haired, brown-eyed girl, who was so slim and so small, and yet so full of vitality and charm. "Commercialized glamor!" aaid one of the men. "Yen!" aaid another. "And. good lord, how that gal can put a song oven Marie went on Into the final stanza of her song, swaying a lit tle, her hand clasped tightly against her breast Singing, sing ing, as though her heart were c tually a-grieving.

Marie's singing her husky, mov ing voice had thrilled them, ex cited them, set their imaginations to working. And now Marie was smiling at them, bowing. Then when , the announcer stepped up to the microphone to read the commercial, she disap peared behind a black velvet hanging.

Maybe, she said, where did you come from. Tommy?" Tommy FROM out of the night," said Tommy. "Did you forget you had a date to go dancing with me after the broadcast?" No. I hadn't forgotten. But I didn't think you'd be here so soon. Believe It or not beautiful." said Tommy, stepping closer to the girl's side, "I had to fight like the devil to keep Irom coming even sooner. Then, searching Maries lovely face, he said: "Darned if you don't look as though you were carrying the torch for someone. . . . Are you?" "Of course not, silly!" Marie said, but not very convincingly. "It was the song in a way ... I mean it made me sort of home sick." "I'll admit It's some song." said Tommy. "It's got me, too made me love you more than ever. I was outside listening through the amplifier." "I learned it when I was six teen," Marie went on. "A boy I used to know wrote the words. I had it set to music after I came up to New York." "I see." Tommy eyed her close ly. "But are you sure it wasn't the boy you were homesick for?" "Maybe it was. His name was Henry, and he might have mar ried me, if " "Go on," Tommy urged when Marie hesitated. "I might as well know all, now that I want to marry you. This Henry person might have married you if what?" "If I hadn't let him know I longed for a career," said Marie. "He was an understanding soul, and too unselfish to want to dis courage me. Sometimes I almost wish that he hadn't been so will ing to let me go. I wish he'd been more assertive." "You mean you loved him?" "I'm not sure, Tommy." said Marie. "Tell me. Tommy, do you think the average girl would be happier making a career of mar riage than of singing or acting or dancing or something like that?" "I couldn't answer that one." Tommy grinned. "You girls being what you are. But tell me, is this Henry person dead?" "Oh, no! He's very much alive so I hear." "And you still have a warm spot in your heart for him?" "Yes," said Marie. Then, thoughtfully: "Sometimes I think being on the air isn't worth the price of being on the air without . him. ' Te be continued Helium gas first was observed on the sun.
